Glowing Skin

You don't normally think of the above when you here the word ACNE, but if you've got your fashion thinking cap on, Ambition to Create Novel Expressions must come to mind. This minimalist Swedish label is known for their flattering denim cuts--their jeans have a cult-like following. But beyond the hip jeans is a decidedly Scandinavian flair for simple basics with awesome details. Plain t-shirts with just the right amount of extra v-neck, tank tops just sheer enough to go from bland to sexy and heels to die for. You can get the jeans at Barney's, but the clothing collection is hard to come by, and when it is available (online) the selection is limited. Fortunately, their online store recently started shipping to the US. Check out these gems:


A little Thierry Mugler, a little Christopher Kane


This laid-back piece exerts cool with the throw-back wash and big buttons.


A perfect transition piece for summer to fall. Cute denim dress that can be layered over black tights and shirts when it gets chilly.

You can also get Acne Paper on the website, always an excellent read.
